Modems connected to the Australian telecoms network must have a valid 

Austel permit. This modem has been designed to specifically configure to 

ensure compliance with Austel standards when the country/region selection 

is set to Australia. The use of other country/region setting while the modem 

is attached to the Australian PSTN would result in you modem being 

operated in a non-compliant manner. To verify that the country/region is 

correctly set, enter the command ATI which displays the currently active 

setting. 
To set the country/region permanently to Australia, enter the following 

command sequence:

AT%TE=1
ATS133=1
AT&F
AT&W
AT%TE=0
ATZ

Failure to set the modem to the Australia country/region setting as shown 

above will result in the modem being operated in a non-compliant manner. 

Consequently, there would be no permit in force for this equipment and the 

Telecoms Act 1991 prescribes a penalty of $12,000 for the connection of 

non-permitted equipment.

■

The grant of a Telepermit for a device in no way indicates Telecom 

acceptance of responsibility for the correct operation of that device 

under all operating conditions. In particular the higher speeds at which 

this modem is capable of operating depend on a specific network 

implementation which is only one of many ways of delivering high 

quality voice telephony to customers. Failure to operate should not be 

reported as a fault to Telecom.

■

In addition to satisfactory line conditions a modem can only work 

properly if:
a/ it is compatible with the modem at the other end of the call and.
b/ the application using the modem is compatible with the application 

at the other end of the call - e.g., accessing the Internet requires 

suitable software in addition to a modem.

■

This equipment shall not be used in any manner which could constitute 

a nuisance to other Telecom customers.
